Fractured as then, it's an opposing end, and...

Don'T Drop the Soap Jimmy Slamming the Pathetic Whorelock Round Four
We can go blow-for-blow, toe-to-toe, or flow-for-flow,
As the troop from the soup sit back and enjoy the show.
I am merciless, like the SAMURAI with the AFRO,
Since I slice and dice my competition where ever I...

The Broken Dreamers
On late nights and early mornings 
We sit listen and stare at ceilings of sky
Through the smoke of a cigarette 
Knowing that life and this simple stick are burning out
Sometimes we shout in a whisper...

To conquer our fears 

And our limitations

So that we no longer have 
to be 
a victim of our own failures

It does not differentiate sins great or small

And you may almost have paid it anyway
You revere Gods son as Jesus Christ

Bovine Ailments
Bovine ailments make cows sad
Diseases I have never had
Dreams that cannot be fulfilled
Stomachs, four, happiness, nil

Soured milk from rotting udders
Poorly calfs with fretting mothers
Coughing, wheezing as they plod
Where many a gangrenous hoof has trod

In pastures...

Like our daily grind without emotion

A Quadrilateral Conception
Christians who follow the quadrilateral,
Have won half the battle.

Always look to scripture,
To focus on the big picture.

Knowing this truth is vital.

A rendition of your own Christian traditions,
Can cause possible conflictions.

Would need replacing
